Aortic Stenosis
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a pre-market clinical investigation aiming to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Microport™ CardioFlow VitaFlow™ II Transcatheter Aortic Valve System for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis.
Detailed description
This a prospective, multi-center, single-arm, objective performance clinical investigation, aiming to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Microport™ CardioFlow VitaFlow™ II Transcatheter Aortic Valve System for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. A total of 145 subjects will be enrolled in 18 clinical centers within China. Clinical or telephone follow-up is scheduled at 30 days, 6 months, 12 months, and 2-5 years after valve implantation.
Interventions
VitaFlow™ II Transcatheter Aortic Valve System contains a valve stent-VitaFlow™ Aortic Valve, a delivery system-VitaFlow™ Delivery System, loading tools, and a guide-wire
